Description James Smith 2023-07-19 22:08:50 UTC
subscription-manager command in step 2 of Enabling repositories for the undercloud [1]:

[stack@director ~]$ sudo subscription-manager repos --enable=rhel-8-for-x86_64-baseos-eus-rpms --enable=rhel-8-for-x86_64-appstream-eus-rpms --enable=rhel-8-for-x86_64-highavailability-eus-rpms --enable=openstack-17.1-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms --enable=fast-datapath-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms

Are those rhel-8 repos correct? 
Should they be rhel-9?

Comment 1 James Slagle 2023-07-20 15:56:17 UTC
The 9.2 repos from Chapter 2 should be used for that command instead. The command to switch container-tools to the RHEL 8 version can also be dropped.

It should look like the 6.3 section from the 17.0 guide. https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_openstack_platform/17.0/html-single/director_installation_and_usage/index#proc_enabling-repositories-for-the-undercloud_preparing-for-director-installation

I'm not sure why the 17.1-beta guide has such different content.

Comment 2 kgilliga 2023-07-20 18:28:18 UTC
The FFU guide shares this module with the Director guide, and the FFU requires the rhel 8 repos during the undercloud upgrade. I think the solution here is to conditionalize the list of repos so the rhel 9 repos appear in the Director guide, while the rhel 8 repos appear in the FFU guide.

Update: I am going to discuss what content does/doesn't apply to the director guide with the DF writer. We will likely conditionalize the upgrade-specific content so that it only appears in the FFU guide.
